Nancy Barkley, owner and founder.

Global destinations are my business—and my passion.

As the Founder of Honeymoons and Get-A-Ways, I’ve spent 25+ years helping couples, venues, and hospitality brands transform travel into unforgettable weddings and events. What sets me apart is not just the logistics—it’s my ability to align strategy, culture, and service so every experience feels seamless and deeply connected to place.

Beyond planning, I advise hospitality leaders on business development and guest experience, speak on international stages about entrepreneurship and destination events, and contribute travel and culture writing to leading media outlets including Forbes, The New York Times, CNN, and MSN.

As the writer behind The Culture & Travel Report, I share stories that explore travel, culture, lifestyle, beauty, wellness, and weddings in a way that’s engaging, insightful, and fun—inviting readers to see the world with curiosity, style, and a fresh perspective.

What I bring:
A global mindset and cross-cultural expertise.
A strategic approach to both events and business growth.
A reputation for elevating experiences that resonate long after the celebration ends.
I don’t just plan events—I build connections between people, places, and possibilities.

✨ Open to collaborations with hospitality partners, venues, tourism boards, and media.
